keyboard closes on textinput focus in android 10 devices

Question

I have a simple textinput but i cant type as the keyboard closes as soon as focus in TextInput:

import React, { useContext, useState } from 'react';
import { TextInput } from 'react-native';
import { Button } from 'react-native-paper';

const SearchBar = (props) => {
  const [searchQuery, setSearchQuery] = useState('');
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
  const { searchBy } = props;
  const { navigation } = props;
  const { params } = props.route;

  const onChangeSearch = (query) => setSearchQuery(query);


  const doSeach = async () => {
    setLoading(true);
    const bundlesFound = await Service.search(searchQuery.trim());
    //do stuff.
    setLoading(false);
  };
  return (
    <>
      <TextInput
        onChangeText={onChangeSearch}
        onSubmitEditing={doSeach}
        value={searchQuery}
      />
      <Button
        icon="magnify"
        loading={loading}
        mode="contained"
        compact
        onPress={doSeach}
      />
    </>
  );
};
export default SearchBar;

As soon as I focus the textinput, the keyboard opens but it closes down immediately on android 10 devices mainly.
